Chapter 120 The Cave Opens
"Shangguan Jinluan, is it possible that you only have Fairy Liu in your eyes, but you don't pay attention to me, an old man?"
Hearing this, an embarrassed smile appeared on the middle-aged monk's face. He stood up in the air, saluted the two of them, and then said with a smile: "It turns out to be Master Wu. Shangguan Jinluan is polite. I heard that Master Wu was here on the second day." I was promoted to a great alchemist ten years ago, and it’s really gratifying that three great alchemists have appeared in Dancao Mountain.”
"Hey, Shangguan Jinluan, your Hundred Refining Sect's great weapon refiners are no less than those of our Dancao Mountain, and you have entered the Golden Refining Realm at the age of one hundred and twenty years old. You are indeed worthy of being a wizard of the Hundred Refining Sect. , Even if you enter Yuanying in the future, there is a lot of hope. Maybe hundreds of years later, Bailian Sect will still have to rely on fellow Taoist Shangguan for support." The old man known as Master Wu looked at Shangguan Jinluan, but there was not much on his face. smile.
"Where is it?" Shangguan Jinluan obviously heard the mockery in the old man's words, but he didn't care at all, and didn't even move his face: "What does your cultivation mean? Who doesn't know It only took a hundred years for Fairy Liu to enter the Golden Core Realm. Even among the five major sects in our Tianlu Mountains, there are only a handful of them, and Fairy Liu is the one who is most likely to achieve greatness. "
"Okay, don't you feel ashamed to compliment each other like this in front of so many younger generations?" The woman surnamed Liu was as beautiful as a fairy, but her face was covered with frost. After Shangguan Jinluan and the old man surnamed Wu finished talking, they were cold Said coldly.
Hearing this, Shangguan Jinluan and the old man surnamed Wu showed awkward smiles, and then fell silent.
Many cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage below saw the three people chatting without any scruples. Not only did they not show any dissatisfaction, but they all looked at the three of them with envy. Not one of them made a sound.
Xiao Lin couldn't help but glance at Fairy Liu. In Xiao Lin's impression, apart from his fleeting glance at the white-robed woman in Xueling Fairy City, which left a deep impression on him, Fairy Liu was definitely the one he saw. The most beautiful woman he has ever seen, but Xiao Lin was not amazed by the woman's appearance, but what Shangguan Jinluan said was that it only took a hundred years for Fairy Liu to enter the Golden Core Realm. This was too amazing. .
You must know that foundation building, golden elixir, and Yuanying, each major realm crossing is a transformation of the cultivator, and the realm bottlenecks in it have tortured many cultivators who long for immortality to death. Under normal circumstances, A cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage usually builds a foundation between thirty and forty years old. But if one can go a step further and enter the Golden Core Realm, it’s hard to say. Some people can enter the Golden Core Realm in about a hundred years. It is also possible that two hundred years ago, before the end of his life, he happened to enter the golden elixir realm.
This not only relies on qualifications, but also a considerable amount of chance. And this Fairy Liu actually entered the Golden Core Realm at the age of a hundred years old. It must be said that she is really the favorite of God.
At this moment, a fire cloud suddenly appeared on the horizon in the distance. This fire cloud covered an area of twenty or thirty feet, and flew towards the valley like lightning. As soon as it appeared on the horizon, in the blink of an eye, it When they arrived at the valley, the fire cloud was actually a flame. As soon as it reached the sky above the valley, the hot breath was emitted, and the ice and snow in the valley began to melt at a speed visible to the naked eye.
And directly under the fire cloud, dozens of cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage had a look of horror on their faces. They were sweating profusely at this moment, and seemed to be unable to withstand the pressure and hot breath brought by the fire cloud.
"Old Monster Zhen, it seems that your Qianyuan Fierce Talisman has been condensed to the point where body and treasure are integrated into one, but there is no need to show it off, it will make the children below warm." He glanced at the scorching fire cloud. , the old man surnamed Wu snorted lazily, and then said.
The fire cloud covering a radius of twenty or thirty feet suddenly converged like a hundred birds returning to their nests. As the flames dissipated, a middle-aged man of about forty years old was revealed. The middle-aged man His thick eyebrows, big eyes, wide nose and wide mouth, and the sparse and thick beard under his forehead are impressive.
After Huo Yun restrained himself, he glanced at the old man surnamed Wu and couldn't help laughing: "So it's you Wu Daozi, what's the matter? Does such a trivial matter as the underground trial require you, a master of the middle stage of Jindan, to take action? Is it possible? Do you want to recruit more disciples in Dancaoshan after this trial?"
"Hehe, you don't blame us for the few disciples of your Qianfu Sect. That's because you are too picky. But I didn't expect that fellow Taoist Zhen, whom we haven't seen for thirty years, has already condensed the magic weapon of Qianyuan Fierce Talisman into a human treasure. , it seems that entering the middle stage of Jindan is just around the corner." Looking at the big man named Zhen, Wu Daozi had a look of surprise on his face, as if he sensed that he had reached the peak of the early stage of Jindan. He himself was just a little worse.
"There is no way. There are too few cultivators with the talent of making talismans. However, if we say that there are few disciples, our Qianfu Sect is far inferior to Tianyun Pavilion. Huh? Fairy Liu and Fellow Taoist Shangguan are also here. From this point of view, Only Tianyun Pavilion is left.”
"It seems that Tianyun Pavilion was the last to arrive when the catacombs were opened last time. It seems that it is true that there are fewer people and more rules." Shangguan Jinluan said calmly.
"Why do fellow Taoists Shangguan talk about people behind their backs? Could it be that they are dissatisfied with Tianyun Pavilion?" As soon as the words were said, a light golden sword light appeared on the horizon, and several people arrived almost instantly. In front of him, the sword light dissipated, revealing a middle-aged man in his thirties. This man had a white face and no beard, almost perfect facial features, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and a black hair hanging behind him. He was wearing an emerald green robe with a slanted robe inserted behind his back. A three-foot long sword, only the hilt studded with pearls and jade is exposed from its shoulder.
Seeing this person, Shangguan Jinluan's face changed slightly, and then he said: "It turns out to be Brother Gu. It seems that Brother Gu's Jinxuan Sword Escape has almost reached the invisible realm. I just said it casually, Brother Gu. Don’t take it to heart.”
Shangguan Jinluan seemed to be extremely afraid of this monk surnamed Gu. Even when facing Wu Daozi, a monk in the middle stage of Jindan, he did not have such a solemn expression. This shows that this monk surnamed Gu must be extraordinary.
"Brother Gu, my little sister is here to greet you." The indifferent Fairy Liu actually took the initiative to salute the monk named Gu, and the old man surnamed Wu and the big man surnamed Zhen also saluted the monk surnamed Gu. In the faint, the monk surnamed Gu seemed to be He became the head of the five people.
"Everyone is welcome. Now that the five major sects of us have arrived, let's open the cave. We, the host, still need one person to give a few words to these little guys below. I don't know which Taoist brother is willing to do this. , said the monk surnamed Gu, but he looked at Shangguan Jinluan.
Shangguan Jinluan cursed a few times in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face: "Just come down and read out the rules of the catacomb trial."
After saying that, Shangguan Jinluan turned around and looked down the valley. A loud voice echoed in the valley at the same time: "Listen, everyone, the underground cave trial is held every thirty years. Now half a century has passed. The cave will be opened again, and before this trial, there are some rules that I need to tell you in advance. "
After a pause, Shangguan Jinluan continued: "You are here to participate in this catacomb trial. Except for a small number of outer disciples from our five major sects, most of them are casual cultivators from the major immortal cities. You will participate in the catacomb trial." The purpose of the trial is nothing more than to pick the Purple Spirit Flower, so that you can enter the five major sects to practice. I also express my utmost admiration for your dedication to the Tao. The road to cultivation is inherently bumpy and difficult, and so are we cultivators. It’s been a difficult journey.”
"The great road is extremely difficult, but only those with a firm mind cannot reach it. All of you who can choose to participate in the Catacomb Trial are naturally those with a firm mind. I will not go into details on this point. Let me tell you some things to note about the Catacomb Trial. , after the catacombs are opened, you can enter them at will, but please note that the passages of the catacombs can only be entered but not exited. Today, one month later, we will cast a spell again to open the exit of the catacombs, and then you will be able to come out. ”
"Once you choose to enter the cave, you must stay there for a full month. During this month, you will naturally face many dangers. These dangers are not only many monsters, but also the cultivators around you. , as for whether you can pick the Purple Spirit Flower, it all depends on your chance. Remember, you must come out today, one month later, otherwise once the cave is closed, you will never be able to come out, and as usual, the cave trial Look, as long as you stay in it, you will definitely die. You must remember this, and we will open the passage to the cave. "
After finishing speaking, Shangguan Jinluan didn't care whether the many cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage understood or not, and walked up to the others. The monk surnamed Gu nodded to everyone, and then the five of them flew in five directions. After a while, The five people stood still in five directions, then closed their eyes and pinched the magic formula at the same time.
After less than half an hour, the five people each shot a spiritual light beam. The five spiritual light beams collided together in mid-air, merged together, fell from the sky, and shot directly into a hill near the bottom of the valley.
Suddenly, the entire valley began to shake, and the ice and snow accumulated on the mountain for countless years suddenly collapsed, forming a large avalanche. However, this level of danger is naturally extremely dangerous for ordinary mortals, but for many cultivators, It doesn't mean anything, they just need to disperse the magic power from the body to protect the whole body, but they just look a little embarrassed.
The entire valley was also shrouded in snowflakes flying all over the sky. Xiao Lin stood on the boulder, and a spiritual light in his body turned into a green eggshell, shrouding it. The falling snow reached his feet. In front of him, the waves automatically split into two waves and went around him on both sides.
It took half an hour for the snowflakes all over the sky to dissipate, and the rumble of the avalanche to disappear. When everyone looked back at the mountain lower in the valley, they couldn't help showing expressions of horror.
All the snow on the original snow-capped mountain disappeared, revealing a pitch-black peak that looked like it was made of fine iron. In the center of the peak, a pitch-black halo of several feet in size shone.
The surface of the pitch-black aperture was still flashing with ripples like waves, and on the periphery of the aperture, runes appeared one after another. With the aperture as the center, they extended to all directions, seeming to have penetrated deeply into the mountain peak. Same as in.
